Sentinel-IR 0.5 Adds Rust Support to Its Code Security Scanner

Sentinel-IR is a tool that scans source code and rates its risk level, giving users a quick way to judge whether code looks safe. The 0.5 release adds support for Rust, a language often chosen for performance-sensitive and systems work. The scanner also now examines the build process, not only the program itself, since Rust can run code during compilation that may be risky. Its detection is harder to evade, and the update makes it faster and lighter, with a large test set of real files now processed in a fraction of the earlier time. The tool does not execute or upload the code it analyzes, and it is free and open source under the Apache-2.0 license.
